perhaps I'll do some more unfucking
I wish that didn't describe so much of my cleaning habits.
What? I'm not allowed to hit people? Wesley: Not people capable of genocide. Angel: Those are exactly the types of people I should be allowed to hit!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I must finish taxes and take a bag of stuff to Goodwill.
There are also soccer games both Sat and Sun, so maybe some knitting. I'd like to do some cooking or baking, but I am pretty sure that will not happen.

I got my taxes done. meh. I do get money back, so that's all to the good; last year my math skills were of the suck and - believe it or not - the IRS corrected it and send me more money than I expected.
I need to do some cleaning, but I tripped on a piece of rough sidewalk and didn't fall, but twisted my back and badly pulled the big muscle that goes up the back of the thigh into the ass. So I've been lying around with a heat patch on my ass.

the panda bear video on good stuff reminds me of that one Beastie Boys video, you know the one.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
WTF? Are they counting on a wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey thing?
Yes, they do. The "timey-wimey" thing they're counting on is their editors working as long and hard and fast as necessary to get the job done.
That's not merely my cynical perception, that's pretty much verbatim from the Department Overlord.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
My next one thing is a bitch. I'd rather declutter.
My next one thing is either dusting or cleaning the bathroom. And I do not want to do either one, on an epic scale.
We accept Word or LaTex files. The conversion vendors convert these files to .xml which is what we edit in, in something called "Epic".
WHAT. You edit in xml???
...I feel better now.
many pubs have been "outsourced" to being edited by the same vendors
Holy. Shit.

I KNOW. It's ridiculous. I can't even describe how ridiculous it is.
...I feel better now.
Good, good. Is your company hiring?
Holy. Shit.
Yeah, that's one of the things we are not supposed to even mention to the Editors-in-Chief at the upcoming conference. For obvious reasons. We staff editors are specifically not allowed to speak up in the meeting.

Ahahahaha. No, we aren't even replacing my co-worker who died. We're cut so close to the bone it's comical.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
My folks are here, so the weekend plans involve them. Haven't figured out where we will take them for touristy stuff tomorrow. (Sunday is meals with Gary's folks-brunch with his mom and dinner with his dad and step-mom)
